Also.
The Committee on Schools beg leave to
report on the communication of Mr.. Nc
Donald in reference to introducing Yaggy'S
Anatomical Charts into our schools. We
have been unable to get full meeting of
the committee, and will only say that we
have given the matter some attention and
believe that knowledge of the rudiments of
physiology and hygiene may be obtained
more quickly in this way than in any other.
We believe that it can be studied under the
head Of general exercises without interfer-
ing with any other studies. The cost of
putting one of Yaggy's charts in each
school will be about S700. We have no
choice, only to get the best, but have no
hesitation in recommending trial of
Yaggy's or some other equally good chart.
Respectfully submitted.
l.. A. GILBERT. Chairman.
Received and re-referred to Committee on
Schools for correspondence and further re-
port.
